1 Agency Institution Major Project Request Biennium G16 University of Wisconsin Platteville Project Title Sesquicentennial Hall Project Request The UW System requests enumeration of $55,189, ($54,62, General Fund Supported Borrowing and $587, Program Revenue Supported Borrowing) to construct a new mechanical and industrial engineering building at UW- Platteville. Project Description and Scope This project constructs a new 47,513 ASF/ 76,9 GSF academic engineering facility on a surface parking lot directly across the street from and east of Engineering Hall to provide instructional laboratory suites (~26,34 SF); project and research laboratories (~4, SF); and general assignment classrooms (~3,45 SF), including those configured and equipped for active learning. The campus data center will also be relocated into this building from the basement of Gardner Hall and a new surface parking lot will be constructed to replace the one serving as the site for this building. The following spaces and quantities will be included in this project: SPACE TYPE SF Classrooms, Collaboration, and Study Space 6,45 Instructional/Project/Research Laboratories 3,34 Offices, Support, and Storage Space 7,923 Campus Data Center 2,8 TOTAL 47,513 The new facility will provide adequate space to resolve demonstrated quantitative and qualitative space shortages in Ottensman Hall. Approximately 19,7 SF of computing, dry, and wet instructional and project laboratory space will be relocated from Ottensman Hall to the new facility because the existing space cannot be effectively renovated to accommodate the engineering program. These spaces include laboratories for computer aided engineering, mechanical systems, metallurgy and materials, thermo science, and thermal systems. The new facility will be constructed with adequate structural bay sizing and floor to floor clearance necessary for the engineering laboratories and mediated general assignment classrooms. An additional ~15, SF of new laboratory space will be constructed for specialized computing, equipment and service, manufacturing, machine shop/project making, and research lab space that does not exist on campus. The new campus data center will provide adequate cooling and ventilation for the servers, workstations, uninterruptible power supplies, and other computing equipment as well as being located within the building with appropriate fire protection, electrical capacity and distribution, and environmental/flood protection measures. At the completion of this project, approximately 25, SF in Ottensman Hall will be vacated and made available for reallocation for other departments on campus. More than 73, SF of space deficiencies have been identified across campus, primarily those 28 departments operating in the four relic and former residence hall facilities (Brigham Hall, Gardner Hall, Royce Hall, and Warner Hall) planned for eventual demolition due to their poor functional and physical condition assessments. Campus space planning initiatives have determined that these 28 departments will all eventually relocate into a renovated Ottensman Hall once the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) academic programs currently housed there are relocated to adequate facilities. Background UW-Platteville is a STEM-focused campus, with 58% of graduates earning a degree in those fields. The mechanical engineering program alone accounts for 12% of the overall enrollment. Since the inception of the Tri-State Initiative in 25, campus enrollment has been increasing at a steady pace. Headcount enrollment has grown by almost 4%, from 6,415 in Fall 25 to 8,967 in Fall 215. The enrollment has more than doubled since 23 to a high point of 1,44 majors in Fall 213. This growth within mechanical engineering and all other engineering programs on campus is projected to continue. 8/18/216 page 1 of 3

2 Major Project Request Biennium The campus is integral in consistently providing skilled graduates, particularly engineers, to meet the increasing needs of Wisconsin industry. Job placement and hiring of UW-Platteville engineering graduates by Wisconsin employers is substantial. The engineering programs are currently served by two buildings, Engineering Hall (18,5 GSF constructed in 29) and Ottensman Hall (168,829 GSF constructed in 1965). The mechanical engineering program is housed in the basement level of Ottensman Hall within spaces that have not been significantly upgraded since the building was originally constructed. Engineering Hall, designed to complement and not replace Ottensman Hall, is fully utilized and is not able to accommodate the quantitative or specialized functional space needs to support the significant and sustained growth of the mechanical engineering program. Analysis of Need Ottensman Hall does not have adequate structural bay spacing or floor to ceiling clearance to house modern STEM disciplines. The structural bays are 2-feet by 27-feet and 27-feet by 27-feet with a 13-foot 4-inch floor to ceiling clearance. A modern STEM facility would be constructed with dimensions based on multiples of 11-feet deep and up to 35-feet wide to accommodate standard equipment and furnishings and typical laboratory configurations, and floor to ceiling height clearances of 18 to 2-feet on the first floor and 14 to 16-feet on all other floors to accommodate building infrastructure and still allow mediated instructional spaces. Renovating this building for more infrastructure intensive laboratory needs would compromise ceiling heights, inhibit future flexibility, create the need for excessive fittings that would result in higher pressure drops and fan energy consumption, force service access of piping and terminal units to be located directly over laboratory spaces, and cause extremely congested use of additional vertical shafts. The added vertical shafts would be expensive to create and would reduce usable square footage, lowering building efficiency to an unacceptable level. This facility also does not have enough physical space to accommodate the specialized laboratory needs of the industrial and mechanical engineering programs. Space utilization analysis reveals that the mechanical engineering instructional laboratories are well utilized, averaging ~27 hours per week and two laboratories reached 4 and 53 hours of scheduled instruction per week. This intensive use profile is further amplified by the unique specialized equipment and machinery used in the spaces. There is a limit to the number of students that can safely and functionally access the rapid prototyping machines, three-dimensional printers, metal shop machinery, and industrial/advanced manufacturing simulation units. Due to the structural limitations and condition of the building infrastructure, this facility is planned to be reallocated to less intensive academic and student support services uses once the academic programs can be housed in appropriate STEM facilities and this building can be completely renovated. The mechanical, electrical, telecommunications, and plumbing systems are all obsolete and nearing the end of their useful lives. Some of the specialized equipment critical to teaching is housed in basement spaces that do not comply with current codes for occupancy due to lack of ventilation and proper emergency egress. To meet the undergraduate research and experiential project-based pedagogy space needs, modular research and project spaces will be shared by faculty and students. This arrangement creates future flexibility to respond to changing program needs. The Gardner Hall basement provides an inadequate data center location due to lack of appropriate fire suppression systems, adequate ventilation and cooling systems, undersized electrical capacity and distribution, and lack of environmental/flood control. Water infiltration into the data center space nearly shut it down twice in the past few years. The data center space was not designed for its current use, resulting in congested work and equipment operating space, which contributes to the high temperatures within this location. Alternatives The Academic Buildings Feasibility Study (12L1K) completed in 215 explored multiple alternatives to address the space shortages identified in the Space Utilization Study and Campus Master Plan. The feasibility study ultimately recommended a five phase implementation plan that balances programmatic priorities, projected incremental enrollment growth, funding realities, existing space use, and existing building conditions. This project implements Phase I of the recommended approach which culminates in the full renovation of Ottensman Hall and the razing of the four relic and former residence halls (Brigham Hall, Gardner Hall, Royce Hall, and Warner Hall) in Phase V. 8/18/216 page 2 of 3
